red juice tourism



Stobi Winery is located in the central part of Macedonia near the famous archaeological site Stobi which happens to be the largest vineyard plantations in the country. Aleksandar Radevski + Viktorija Stavrik's complex covers an area of 110 x 140 m -  consisting of 3 continuously connected units which are determined by the sloping terrain. The Architects have composed 8 functional units perimetrally organised around the central courtyard and equipped with grape processing technology, bottling lines and warehouses. The central part is designed to store wine in barrels and has a tasting room. Due to the warm climate, the Architects have designed the buildings without openings where the processing equipment is. Due to that, the façade treatment involves the use of colors that are characteristic of the surrounding nature of the winery. There is also a 35m triangular tower is envisaged as the next step. At the highest level it would implement a restaurant overlooking the magnificent view of the surrounding landscape, the river Vardar and the archaeological site Stobi.
